OK I got hit recently with the news that yet another friend of mine has Lymphoma, a rather nasty strain of cancer that attacks the lymphatic system.

 

This got me thinking about my donation through the club to Cancer research.

 

Had a quick chat with Rich (Chunk) and he is in favor so here goes.

 

I thought it would be nice to kill 2 birds with 1 stone. We get to raise money for a very good charity and we all get to meet in some way as a club.

 

Seeing as this is a car club, it would have to involve the cars in some way.

 

Need a few ideas, Ive had a couple.

 

Round Britain relay run. Can you imagine 50+zeds touring round the country at teh same time?

Sponcered 24 hour race/run (Le Mans all over)

 

Your serious sugestions please.

 

Secondly, a poll. just to see numbers.

im in - will do anything i can to help - need to work out what is possible first, what has been done before???

What about sponsore runs etc?

 

I will be up for it if i can no matter what it is

I don't have much luck with my cars at the moment, but if there's a collection going or I can help in any other way then sign me up...

count me in, my missus lost her dad a few months ago to cancer and her mum had breast cancer last year, so DEFINATELY count me in........

 

Andy.....

Woohoooo, 24 votes outta ohhhh 500 odd subscribed members!!!

Hey, count me in for whatever the club decides...

I am still working on this.

i could have a word with the guys on the saxo owners club see if they would help !!!!

get in contact with z evo 50 for some help with it as he is secretary for the melton and rutland cancer suport group and we know they will help

Im defenitely up for this, my older brother only 29 has lymphona cancer and we just had the news today that it's come back after 8 aggressive kimo treatments which finished 7 weeks ago, He is allowed 2 final powerfull doses of kimo but first they have to remove his stem cells so the kimo does'nt kill them, then put them back in after! then he has to have bone marrow transplant so me and my little brother and sister all have to go in for a compatability test, I just hope to fu**ing god that one of us is a match, because they have said that there is nothing more they can do after that and give him 6 months if it doesnt work, and he's got a huge fu**ing lump growing on the side of his neck which makes it difficult for him to breath, this lump appeared overnight (lastnight). :cry: :cry: . I really dont know what to think at the moment my heads all over the place, I don't know wheather to cry or scream or fill the Z with juice and take it out on the A38, thats what i used to do years ago to clear my head, but I don't think it's going to work this time somhow, It's just something that i've got to deal with now, but im up for any ideas you guys have just pm me.....

Hi All

 

Am in favour of anything the Club decides to do on this one, lets get some money raised for cancer research in any witch way we can. You are probably not aware that I lost mu Mum to breast cancer in January 2005 after nursing her for around 3 months, and it was the one of the hardest things that I have had to do, also my Dad, who died in September 2003 also had breast cancer and it was a contributory factor in is death as well. Currently I am the secretary/newletter editor for the Rutland and Melton Cancer Support Group and I am sure that if come this way you will get a lot of support from them. So come on you guys, lets get the ball rolling and sort something out. Cheers Dave

This is what my mate is going through. Everytime the inject him with the acid they use (chemo I Beleive) his neck swells up and he can hardly breath, that alone has nearly killed him twice the poor bugger.

I have a idea, im just working out teh cost and if its not too much in the way of "money down" it would mean we get to raise a lot but dont have to do much to do so.
